Materials and methods

Test guideline
Qualifier:
no guideline followed
Principles of method if other than guideline:
Ten female guinea pigs were used in the treatment group. The compound was administered in a series of ten "sensitizing" injections into the lower back and flanks of the guinea pigs. Two weeks after administration of the tenth sensitizing injection, a challenge injection of 0.05 mL was administered. The volume of the first injection was 0.05 mL and that of the other nine was 0.10 mL.
GLP compliance:
not specified
Type of study:
other: K. Landsteiner and J. Jacobs, "Studies on the Sensitization of Animals with Simple Chemical Compounds," J. Exp. Med. 61, 643-656 (1935).
Justification for non-LLNA method:
Study conducted in 1985 prior to adoption of the LLNA test as the default testing method.

TEST ANIMALS
- Weight at study initiation: 363-438 g

test chemical
Dose level:
0.1%
Total no. in group:
10
Remarks on result:
other: Review of the data collected for each guinea pig in the treatment group indicates that all challenge injections were within the limits of the reactions recorded during the sensitizing period.
Remarks:
The guinea pig skin sensitization study did not show NTO to be a sensitizer.

Any other information on results incl. tables

Review of the data collected for each guinea pig in the treatment group indicates that all challenge injections were within the limits of the reactions recorded during the sensitizing period. The guinea pig skin sensitization study did not show the test substance to be a sensitizer.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
